Ocean Freight FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between FCL and LCL?

Full Container Load (FCL) means your goods occupy an entire container, offering faster transit. Less than Container Load (LCL) allows you to share space with other shipments, making it a highly cost-effective option for smaller volumes.

How long does ocean freight typically take?

Transit times vary based on the route and port congestion, generally ranging from 15 to 45 days. We provide detailed schedules and real-time updates so you can plan your inventory accordingly.

Do you provide port-to-door delivery?

Yes. We handle the entire logistics chain, including drayage from the port to our local warehouses and final delivery to your specified destination address.

Are there weight limits for sea containers?

Standard 20ft and 40ft containers have specific weight capacities. Our team will advise you on the best container type and loading configuration to ensure safety and regulatory compliance.

What documents are needed for ocean exports?

Key documents include the Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and Certificate of Origin. We handle the preparation and filing of these documents to prevent customs delays.

Do you offer temperature-controlled shipping?

Yes, we provide “Reefer” (refrigerated) containers for perishable goods, pharmaceuticals, and other items that require precise temperature monitoring throughout the voyage.

How are ocean freight rates calculated?

Rates are based on container size, cargo weight/volume, fuel surcharges (BAF), and port handling fees. We provide transparent, all-in quotes to help you manage your shipping budget.

Is insurance recommended for sea freight?

We strongly recommend cargo insurance due to the nature of maritime transit. We offer various coverage plans to protect your investment against unforeseen marine risks.
